Summary****-

  • Great fun to drive, stylish looks, available with metal folding roof
  • Not very practical, no air-con on entry-level models

The third-generation of the MX-5 is the most sophisticated yet. The classic charm of the original has been bought up to date and it's now a much easier convertible to live with everyday thanks to a comfortable ride, modern and functional interior and less wind noise in the cabin. The availability of a folding hardtop model - badged RC, makes it an even more sensible buy and the metal roof retracts in just 12 seconds, plus it comes with the otherwise optional air conditioning. It's lost none of the fun factor either and is still hugely enjoyable on open roads.
